Tooth Coloured (Plastic) Fixed Braces

Tooth-coloured fixed braces for your teeth, to help straighten your smile.

What are tooth coloured braces?

Tooth coloured braces are a type of fixed brace. They consist of small plastic brackets that are connected to wire, used to move the teeth into a desired position. Tooth-coloured braces are designed to closely match the shade of your natural teeth for a more discreet appearance.

How long do you wear fixed tooth-coloured braces?

The length of treatment with fixed braces varies but is typically around 18 to 24 months.

Unlike clear aligners, fixed braces are attached to your teeth for the whole of your treatment. You should not try to remove them yourself, as you could damage your teeth and your treatment progress.

What are the benefits of fixed braces for teeth?

Fixed braces are a popular treatment, this is because they offer predictable results. They are also capable of treating a range of severities, including extensive overcrowding, abnormal eruption of teeth and a very deep overbite. Tooth coloured braces can also appear more discreet than alternatives, such as metal braces.
